I got a new idea. In thinking about Visual Arguments (Chapter 7 in everything’s an argument) and after having my on-campus 120 students create their own visual argument (mini-assignment), I’ve lead myself, domino-wise, to thinking about having them FIND visual arguments. I’d require them to have a digital camera or buy a regular camera and take pictures of visual arguments around them throughout the semester. Then, they’d put together a PPT or paper with those visual arguments and explanations as to what they are arguing and how. I’d put one together over the summer as an example.
